lap steels are easy to make with a odd look or factory. I built a 4 string with the option to add 2 strings its still a 4 but I have a factory 6. sometimes I see guy's playing pedal steel licks on a tele and I want to quit. That where the art is.

Thanks Jason, RTZ, eK and Rob!

I'm planning a new build for those angle slides RTZ.  Maybe a full fledged lap, but I'm not sure yet.  I'd like to keep it to 3-4 strings...

I've got a soft spot in my heart for waltzes and 3/4 time in general. Thanks for sharing that. Feels a little like Christmas with that chimey steel feel. Well done!

123 123 I hate to bring the good news but your bumped from AAA to the Pro's. major league recording Turtle. With just 3 strings using different tuning is a must or you will get bored. Two note angle slides can make a guitar sound like a pedal steel but they are not easy with the 3 string spacing. You just keep getting better Dude!

Slowhound I converted all my old tapes to cd and my old high 8's to dvd a few years ago it was a lot of work but was very much like therapy.
